Lara Fabian is Fabulous 💝
Sublime interprétation. Lara Fabian n'a pas en France la gloire qu'elle mérite.
The writer of this song, Lucio Dalla (from Bologna, northern Italy), wrote this while staying in one of the rooms where Enrico Caruso, former famous tenor (From Neaples, southern Italy), spent the final days of his life. Caruso was 48-years-old when he died, and a few years before Caruso died, he married Dorothy Park Benjamin who was 20 years younger. They had a baby girl they named Gloria. Lucio Dalla wrote this song while imagining how Caruso, who knew he was dying, would have said goodbye to his young wife - the love of his life.
curiosity: in sicilian dialect the word caruso means (ragazzo) boy.
My great grandfather (a music teacher who spoke seven languages from Verona Italy) toured America as his (Caruso) accompianist (piano). We have letters he wrote home where talks about the performances and how amazed he was. I have pictures of him (Caruso) at our family farm, everyone eating and drinking out doors. So cool.
That is an awesome family legacy to have a relative who was friends with this amazing man. Very cool. I’m curious if you found my assessment of his voice accurate as far as the similarities to Placido and Luciano? Thanks for watching.
I understand why exactly Lara is an idol for DIMASH
she is amazing...thank you
I’m not sure if anything more beautiful exists in the world than this performance
Man !
She moves me everytime 8 hear this song.
Sorry to Pavarotti
Sorry to Boccelli
Her version...is the BEST .
I couldn't agree more. She makes me feel it!
Not for me. Please listen the version of who wrote it: Lucio Dalla: th-cam.com/video/i96cDQK6CGo/w-d-xo.html
She was born in Belgium but started her career in Montreal (Canada). She is now a double citizen of Canada and Belgium.
In this song Enrico Caruso is dying. He is with the woman he loves, and they both know their time together is coming to an end. He does not want to leave her, but his death is inevitable. All he can do is tell her how much he loves her, as she looks into his eyes. It's heartbreaking. Lara is aware of this and she feels and portrays the true depth of emotion.
Lara Fabian was born to a French-speaking Belgian father and an Italian mother from Sicily. She now lives in Montreal.
That was absolutely incredible. Wow! What a performer; I'd heard her name for years, but it wasn't until recently that I actually listened to her and watched her and she's absolutely mesmerizing.
I know right? I discovered her only about 18 months ago. Stunning.

Hello, I'm French, and I speak a very little english. I discovered Lara about ... 25 years ! She's an incredible artist, she sing like un angel, she had a super power !
Incredible woman, incredible artist
Hi... If you love her Italian singing, you have to react to her "Perdere l'amore".. A very powerful song that showcase her amasing talent. Greetings from Portugal.
I support this. Greetings from Scandinavia.
Her voice is realy amazing. Greetings from Poland
Essa também é a minha preferida dela!!! Só aquelas primeiras palavras... !!!
"E adesso andate via
Voglio restare solo
Con la malinconia
Volare nel suo cielo…"
Agree. Peredere L'amore is an understated emotional masterpiece
She is in her own league, untouchable in my opinion !
Еxactly ! Тotally agree with you!
Best female vocalist in the world.
She's definitely toward the top of the list, in my opinion. Thanks for watching, Al.
Lara Fabian is Fabulous 🤩
AMO A LARA FABIAN ⚘ 💕 💖 ❤
LARA FABIAN ❤ Her voice is hypnotic, the most pleasant voice to my ears, no matter what language she is singing or speaking. I just can't stop listening it.
The story behind the song:
Caruso had a very difficult and rather unhappy life. He was born to a poor family in Naples and had many challenges and problems with Italian opera houses. Also his wife left him for another man, so he migrated to America and gained fame and success in it, which the song mentions (the nights in America). A few years before his death, he met a young woman and fell deeply in love with her.
Dalla had the occasion to stay at the same hotel “Excelsior Vittoria in Sorrento” where Caruso, the tenor, passed his last nights. Caruso was ill with throat cancer, but that didn’t prevent him from giving singing lessons to a young women with whom he fell deeply in love.
Controversially, the song simply tells about the pain and longings of a man who is about to die while he is looking into the eyes of a girl who was very dear to him.
Caruso opera song is most probably a way of romanticizing Enrico Caruso’s last days. It narrates the drama of Caruso’s last concert:
“It was a hot night and he would not give up singing for her looking at him with admiration, so he brought the piano to the terrace overlooking the port and began to sing a passionate declaration of love and suffering. His voice was strong and the fishermen, hearing, returned to port and remained anchored on the terrace. The lights of the boats were so many that looked like stars … Caruso did not lose the strength and continued singing sinking in the most beautiful green eyes of the girl leaning against the piano. That night his condition worsened. Two days later, on August 2, 1921, Caruso died in Naples. This song narrates the drama of that night, with lights and shadows of the past… with death and life… a sick man who looks in the eyes of the girl a future that no longer exists… a testament of love, a declaration of love… This was his last concert, and had the most exceptional public … the sea, the stars in the sky, fishermen, the lights of the boats, and his beloved girl… “

For a good change of pace try Lara's "rock" duet with Jonny Holliday. Truly one of her best performances
Definitely the "rock star" side of her.
Requiem Por un Fou: Johnny Hallyday's signature piece broken into two voices for Fabian. Full orchestra, full choir, stadium crowd, rain, symphonic rock. Recommend not trying to read the translation during performance as it just distracts from watching the performances.
yes !!!
Here way of breathing is a new art form. She breaths as if it is written down as a part of the lyricks. One can only do this by living the song. Greetings from Antwerp, Belgium.
Lara's Mom is Italian. It's her second language. -- But as a Finnish and Italian speaker I agree with your. The vowels are so open, in Italian particularly. The language is magical.
Aside of that, I think her version is about the best version of Caruso I have ever heard and I love Pavarotti.
Good luck with your new job and happy that you are OK having survived COVID.
Yes it's my favourite version of this song.
She spent the first five or six years of life in Italy. When the family moved back to Belgium, she poured and refused to speak anything but Italian for awhile. She herself has said that technically Italian is her first language.
Apart from her great human qualities and beeing an absolute and celestial diva, Lara is a beautiful soul.
America should welcome her now, it's never too late to do the right thing. Jean-Gilles from Biarritz (France)
Unbelievable to consider that so many outstanding performances were actually from a single concert performance- no outtakes, no massive breaks. How spectacular it must have been for the audience that night. Would have been stunning, and mind-blowing.
Caruso, is an italian song, written, composed and performed in 1986 by Lucio Dalla as a tribute to Enrico Caruso, the most famous tenor of his time (late 19th / early 20th century). He was the first global singing superstar.
The story is about the last days of Enrico Caruso, he knows he is dying, and he is remembering all his career on stage and telling his much younger wife how much he loves her.
It has very quickly become a classic of italia music and the biggest names have covered it (Julio Iglesias, Andrea Bocelli, Josh Groban, …. and of course Luciano Pavarotti).
But for many, Lara's version is the best ever, as she was able, with her unique ability to convey the emotions of a song, to reveal the real sad story written by Lucio Dalla.
I was told that Lucio Dalla himself, after hearing this performance, said that she made it her song and this is the best version he has heard from it.
For Lara, this song is really important as this is a kind of anthem for Italy, and she is so much connected to this country. She spent the first few years of her life there with her sicilian mother and grandma. Her husband is also sicilian.
She can speak & sing in quite a few languages. She's amazing! 👏
I believe she sings in 12 languages, and speaks at least for languages, fluently.
Look lara fabian "perdere l'amore" ❤❤
Lara’s Caruso, Adagio, Je suis Malade and You are not from here are absolute musical journey 🍾 pls. react to more from Lara 😎 tnx for this great reaction 🙏🏻
I think her version is the best. I
Absolutely one of the most extraordinary I've ever seen, especially due to her being able to be herself in so many languages.
Thank you so much,Josh! Please, DIMASH-LARA FABIAN-AIDA GARIFULLINA, " Ti amo cosi" !!!!!
Goosebumps and eye watering, BEST ive ever heard in my Life!
Спасибо! Лара замечательная певица.Даже гениальная .Браво!
as was noted, "Caruso" was written to honor Enrico Caruso, the great Italian tenor who died young, shortly after his daughter was born.....this piece imagines Caruso's last words to his wife and his daughter........"Te voglio bene assai' (I love you very much)....originally written for a male tenor, all the great (and near great) male and female operatic performers have sung this piece
Fabulous and talented Lara! you can also give a reaction to Lara's song "Perdere l'amore" as well as "Je t'aime" always on (Live From Lara With Love) two songs with a lot of emotion. 😉
Her mother was Italien and her father Belgien she speaks 5 languages with ease and she has sung in many more, one of the most under rated Singers in the World, through bad Management and record firms wanting to change her why to dress and sing she never made it like Celine who came out at the same time, give me Lara then Celine.
Breathtaking !
Лара уникальная певица! И бесподобная красавица!
There's something about a woman singing in French or Italian, can't explain it but it is so beautiful.
She is phenomenaaaaaal,magnifiqueee
This is my favourite song of hers, the tone of her voice emanates the melancholy of the lyrics, such a high level artistry!!! Thank you so much for this reaction, you are right, she pours her heart and soul in the performance!!! Please check up Lara and Johnny Hallyday "Requiem for a fool", you will not be disapointed. Cheers!
Complimenti reaction fantastica ! Sappi che Lucio Dalla un giorno si trovava a Sorrento e nell'hotel dove soggiornava un cameriere gli disse che la sua stanza era la stessa che nel 1921 ospitava Caruso poi pochi mesi dopo morì a Napoli da lì trasse l'ispirazine per questa stupenda canzone
His interpretation, taken from the same concert, of "Perdere l'amore" is incredible, fantastic !!!
This is superb - so much emotion in her voice and an amazing voice.
Good to see you back with a Fabian reaction. Glad you are recovered from Covid!
I saw an Italian who love, love, loves this song react to her version recently: he sat there with his mouth open through the whole thing and declared it his new favorite version and her his new favorite female vocalist. Result!🤣
If you're interested in another Italian cover she sang at this concert, she did the gorgeous Pedere L'Amore. Rock-solid low volume to Laratastic belting in same song.
If you're in the mood for original up tempo originals to which she gives the same full energy/emotional commitment, both To Love Again (mid tempo, rock) and I Will Love Again (up tempo, dance hit).
I'm still trying to find out why I love her timbre so much. I'm usually a baritone/Contralto fan, but Fabian is the one soprano who hits my aural net like velvet. I describe her forward placement that you mentioned "cathedral-wide open sound rolling out." 😉
Well, when I said to my doctor (I have PTSD) that Lara's music calms me down she recomended to listen to her interviews. I said I dont understand French but she said just to try it. And she was right, same effect lol Now after many years when I understand French it's the same. My whole family loves her and we are all in love with her voice but we cant explain it why😄
@@Love_Lara It a beautiful, ineffable mystery I may never solve. I'm okay with that.
@Fedor Ivanov I LOVE Lara's voice when she speaks in french, italian, spanish or english 😂 her voice is the most pleasent to my ears.
I'm brazilian and I'm learning french just because of her.
@Fedor Ivanov Certa vez, Celine Dion disse o seguinte quando se encontrou com a Lara num evento: Nossa, Você soa bem até quando fala!! Segundo a própria Lara...
Merci beaucoup Josh ;). Lara is in her own league... ps: "Perdere l'amore" is incredible too...
Hey, how's going? Thank you for this great reaction as usual. I like to hear what u have To say. :) Lara is a masterpiece, her first language is Italian. Her mother was Italian and she grew up there. :)
OBS: This pianist is the same conductor who worked with Barbra Streisand for many years, as Lara is Barbra's fan, she hired him for many years as well.
her first language is french!!!!
@@alfamilano75 She went to Italy before complete 1 year old and stayed there untill 5 years. She already said that first words she ever pronouced was in Italian. ;)
@@alfamilano75 She spent most of the first six years in Italy and has given interviews where she said Italian was technically her first language.
Замечательно! Люблю Лару Фабиан.
Реакция, как всегда, обстоятельная. Спасибо. Россия.
Female Jacques Brel with the way she puts her heart and soul into the song. Incidentally he was French speaking Belgian too.
Stay safe and react to more Lara!!!!
You're not from here
Je suis malade
I will love again
Broken vow
Excerpt from Yentl
Je T‘aime especially the life version where 60% of the song is sung by the audience and Lara got so emotionally touched. Great performance
Handsome dad reacting 😉
Yes, did you know it's the favorite song of lara too? :)
Thank You for your Amazing Reaction 🌺 (she’s heavenly)!
You would love her live performance of Broken Vow!
Great. original of Lucio Dalla is beautiful. Lara is a special artist. Thank you from Italy.
Lara is an Amazing performer. You should react to Lara singing Je Taime live from Paris 2001
❤❤❤❤
Great reaction as usual ...yes, her mother is Sicilian, she lived many years there, She even speaks Sicilian dialect perfectly!
💗💗💗
Omg
Lara’s admirers paid a beautiful tribute singing Je t'aime for her! Very emotional performance ❤️❤️❤️ you should check it out if you didn’t yet 👍🏻
Beautiful reaction and comments as usual 🙏🏻
Amazing
thanks you from france 😊❤
Hi, Bro! I've watched lots of reaction videos, but when i saw your reaction and explanation, i truly enjoyed it.
The song " El perdón " by .Diana Navarro. Gretings from Spain
This girl..What an unusual career. Almost nothing on time. But she will get more and more respected as the time passes by and maybe even more after she passes away. Underrated for a long time, mistreated by the French media as a beginner but mostly in the USA, not permitted to enter the music market there and rejected by the Sony Music because they had to ..support Celine Dion etc. She has survived from many difficulties like cancer, heart attack, problems with her voice, loss of a baby etc and of course many love stories. She is happy at last, but living in Canada. I can understand she had to show her grattitude to a country that welcomed her and supported her to start her career, however I don't understand what the hell is she doing there so many years, far away from her parents and her birthplace and birthplace of her husband. As if Canadians are angels and French people are criminals. If I was Lara I suppose I would live the rest of my life in Paris, after the incredible love I had received in the Paris 2001 concert. A concert that changed her way of facing life and saved her from the suicidal thoughts she was struggling with when she left the USA tragedy. For me it is by far the concert of her life and you should present it as a whole. Because she lived a whole life on the scene that night. I never saw her so deeply desparate and so extremely happy. Try it. I thing it is also available in 6 parts. I run into you just a few minutes ago. Like I did with Lara a year ago when I run into her "je t'aime" (Paris 2001) and became a slave who doesn't want his freedom back. I am ok with you man. Like, subscribe and comment. I suppose this is enough. Huggs, Greece
WOW 💞💞💞💞💞
I'm glad you mention the pianist in this case. He really need to be in a kind of symbiosis with the singer. Follow the dynamic and tempo and so on. It is hard to put words on emotion but to perform like this you need to be in a mental state and in contact with your emotions to be able to let them out.
One thing that is easy to forget is that the mental tonelevel isn't static. Every day life effects us so to enter the stage and really connect to the audience has a lot to do with that you want to connect with them. The intention and the effort to reach out is definitely a factor too. It also craves guts.
Many artists have more of a "look at me" attitude and that shines through because it will be a different flow. It's more admiration for the artist then to be a part of a history and their emotions. Nothing wrong with admiration but if that's the only thing an artist want to achieve it falls flat for me.
Just my humble opinion.
Keep up the good work!
The difference between just singing a song as opposed to enveloping or inhabiting the song. I'd be emotionally drained after one of her concerts. I'd like to see how much performing each song at that incredible level affects her after a concert like this.
She is a legend... Dimash covered Mademoiselle Hyde and Adagio by Lara .. the comparison would be great. I believe you have seen his trio with Lara and Aida... sublime.
I really, really want to see your react8on, Josh, to “Requiem Pour Fou” outside in the rain. It IS another Lara. Johnny is astonishing. The 2nd night was better, but they’re both astonishing!
Hi sir
Kindly feature her rendition of "comme I'll dissent," also " Mistral gagnant," and "why."
Her dad was Belgian, her mom is Italian (Sicily). Spent her first 6 yrs in Sicily, before the family returned to Belgium.
She moved to Montréal in 1991. Has since becom a Canadian citizen, still calls it home, her parents followed years later, mom still close to her daughter and grand daughter. She performs in a dozen languages.
Two of my Italian friends told me that her accent in this is Sicilian.
She seems to have a remarkable facility with not just languages but dialects and accents. Heard a story of her switching from continental French to Quebec French for a group of fans.
Merci pour vos mots francophones.
Look "adagio" même concert de "je suis malade" and "yentl medley" live Montréal 1997 ❤❤❤
you seem to be conquered ... yes yes yes your eyes sparkle when you speak of her. Can i suggest you: "requiem pour un fou" with subtiles, "tango" , " extrait de yentl" , " la traviata" , " perdere l'amore ", " que tu maimes" , " je t'aime " . Take care of you.
Hey
Im new here😀
You have the type of we reaction we REALLY like.
You are a professional who knows music unlike everyone else out there who reviews from the "boys room" and is completely off track😅
Thank you🙏
Bonjour mes amis... your pronunciation was ok. ^^
Hoi Josh. I enjoy your videos. I like it when you talk about the difference in interpretation of a song. Ik noticed the difference between Lara en Pavaroti. Thanks that you talked about that. I would like it very much if you commented on the version of Amira Willenhagen of this song caruso. For my notrained ear again a different version. Sung with a mesmerizing voice.
There are twoo different version, one in an very informal setting the other more formal, take the last one. Greetings from Holland.
Please react to 'Tout', it's one of her most famous songs and yet nobody reacts to it!
It's about Caruso's death and his love for his (much younger) American wife.
Suggest : the same song by a 13 years old singer, Elena Hasna who have interprate it in 2014 : Great voice and amazing girl. She interprate "Je suis malade" and "je t'aime" too or "surrender" (Celine Dion) for examples. She's a talented romanian singer who desserve your attention because she is a wonderful artist. She sing in french, in english, italian, in spanish... . Congratulations for your work.
merci pour vos commentaires traduit en Français
about Caruso as he was dying...
Hello, you should listen to Ofra Haza “love song”
Look "perdere l'amore" même concert
Please React to YOUR NOT FROM HEAR OMG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
also listen to the cover of Floor Jansen.
Thanks reacting to Lara.what you said about the acompanying instruments adjusting the song to the needs and the preferences of the singers interpretation is very true . i noticed it with Lara but also Angelina Jordan and her musicians often adjust and merge together especially with her jazz musicians but also the guitarists it is very obvious. Same with Giulia Falcone who is apparently prerecording her pianoplay if she is not directly playing while singing. She is italian and did at 12 also a remarkable cover of caruso, to which I would like to invite you to have a look at. She did also a cover of Laras Versions of “je suis malade”, and “adagio” , I guess she is also very in favor of Lara which makes sense since they have a similar approach to music. Please have a look th-cam.com/play/PLGr5gGwU548HLO9pRU32piV5OTSu062JL.html
Hi Josh. I enjoy your reactions. Glad you are better! There is a ton more away from Lara's fantastic 1999 from Lara with Love concert. I recommend you try a number from her Un Regard 9 concert (2006). It is called "I guess I loved you". It is just Lara sitting on a piano, accompanied by Manu Pitois. I think It illustrates, the purity of her voice and again, her signature expressiveness. I think you would appreciate it. th-cam.com/video/q13zh3lQU5U/w-d-xo.html
hi. i like the way you react her. i'll be happy if you react to her song :" puisque tu pars" ( since you're leaving ). it's a very beautiful song about suicide. i'm sure you'll find a good version to react to
You simply MUST see her Yentl Medley from 1997.
It’s not to be believed. Simply extraordinary. There aren’t enough superlatives to describe this performance.
th-cam.com/video/zW8lalHMwxk/w-d-xo.html
PS - Perdere L’Amore from the From Lara with Love concert, too. Just exquisite.
So you learned French then she sings in Italian. 😁
Lara’s mother is Sicilian so don’t get her angry 😅
